The eye cream might be too rich. Switch to a gentler formula, such as Environ’s Ionzyme C-Quence Eye Gel. You could also be allergic to your eye-makeup remover.

Alcohol can contribute to swelling under the eyes, so drink water before, during and after a night out. Cut down on salt and processed food as well, as fluid retention is a big factor. Sleep with an extra pillow – the higher elevation can prevent fluid build-up – and try to sleep on your back to prevent ‘scrunching up’ the eye area. Also try to have your last glass of water about 1 hour before going to bed.
